Mesoscale phenomena are ubiquitous and highly energetic features of ocean circulation.
Their influence on biological and biogeochemical processes varies widely, stemming not …

The motivation to study the vertical exchanges of tracers associated with mesoscale eddies
is that the mean concentration of most oceanic tracers changes rapidly with depth. Because …

A common dynamical paradigm is that turbulence in the upper ocean is dominated by three
classes of motion: mesoscale geostrophic eddies, internal waves and microscale three …

The elevation of the ocean surface has been measured for over two decades from
spaceborne altimeters. However, existing altimeter measurements are not adequate to …

Most of the kinetic energy of ocean circulation is contained in ubiquitous mesoscale eddies.
Their prominent signatures in sea surface height have rendered satellite altimetry highly …

On the Transition from Profile Altimeter to Swath Altimeter for Observing Global Ocean Surface

Oceanic and atmospheric dynamics are often interpreted through potential vorticity, as this
quantity is conserved along the geostrophic flow. However, in addition to potential vorticity …

In plankton ecology, biological and physical dynamics are coupled, structuring how plankton
interact with their environment and other organisms. This interdisciplinary field has …

Signatures of ocean eddies, fronts, and filaments are commonly observed within marginal
ice zones (MIZs) from satellite images of sea ice concentration, and in situ observations via …
